"We are proud and excited to announce that we have filled the drum throne with none other than our good friend Q. Some of you may know him from his kick ass drumming in the great but now defunct Clouds. He's a perfect fit and we couldn't be more happy! Come see his first show with us February 5th at Ralph's in Worcester!"

Deathwish/Malfunction along with Six Feet Under Records have produced "MMIX," their most ambitious and ridiculous free digital sampler to date. "MMIX" features 19 songs (15 unreleased) and two behind the scenes videos from some of the most anticipated hardcore/punk/metal releases of the 2009. Many of these songs/videos have never heard/seen before by anyone, anywhere before.

Doomriders is currently at God City studios with engineer Kurt Ballou recording the follow up to their debut, "Black Thunder." This is the first proper album to feature JR Conners (Cave In) in the band.

Doomrider's yet titled new album is expected to be out via Deathwish Inc. later this year. "If their split 7"EP with Disfear was any indication as to where this band is heading, then this album is going to be unstoppable," according to the label.

Sweden's DISFEAR is about to head off on their European tour in support of their latest release, "Live The Storm."

DISFEAR will begin this Fall tour with a run of dates in Germany with fellow Swedes VICTIMS. From there, DISFEAR will join up with Massachusetts' DOOMRIDERS for a two-week, 11-country trek. A listing of confirmed DISFEAR tour dates can be found below.

DISFEAR's Marcus Andersson commented on the upcoming tour; "Once again we team up with our brothers in Doomriders and hit the road. But this time on our side of the Atlantic! We've been looking forward to this for quite some time now and we're stoked that it's finally happening." More...

To celebrate their long standing friendship, Disfear and Doomriders have paired up to release a brand new limited split 7" EP, a joint effort between Disfear's own self ran label, Disfear Records (European territories) and Doomriders' label home, Deathwish (all other territories).

With Doomriders, we get a glimpse into their progression since "Black Thunder" in the soon to be classic, "Crooked Path," which is "easily one of their best songs" according to the announcement.

On the other side, Disfear unleashes the hook laden "Fear And Trembling," their first effort since their classic "Live The Storm" album was released by their current label home, Relapse Records.

A special Disfear Records' "Tour Edition" of this release will be available directly from the bands on their upcoming European tour, while the Deathwish version will be available for Pre-order very soon.

This will be a special release gig for the band's new album, "The Dividing Line," and entry is completely free.

Due to be released on October 20th in Europe and November 11th in the USA, "The Dividing Line" is SSS's second full-length album and has the band once again delivering a mixture of classic thrash with a raw punk attitude, with 20 tracks of skate-friendly anthems.

In anticipation of their upcoming new album, "The Dividing Line," SSS recently made another brand new track available for streaming. The new song titled "Can't Burst The Bubble" can be streamed from the band's myspace page.
